    Q
    Outdoor bedbugs
    Help! I bought this for outside. We had mice in our garage, now bedbugs in the garage (mostly gone in house), but they are attacking anyone outside! And they come in on the feet/pants of anyone who doesn't check themselves. The gardeners, the plumbers, the contractors, the kids, does this kill Outside bedbugs? Our mild temperatures keep them alive here, and they're on the flowers, the succulents, the grass..anywhere there is moisture. I can't go out side, either front or back! Do I have to return this?
    A
    We apologize but there is no such thing as outdoor bedbugs. Can you please use a glue board like what people often use to catch mice on around the house and try to catch one on it? Can you take a picture of some of them in clear light with focus so that we may try and identify what pest you are having outside around your home and in the garage? We look forward to hearing back from you and seeing pictures of the pests so that at that point we can make an accurate recommendation of a product for your needs.

    Q
    Bifen XTS in home - what are the negatives to this?
    I read the label and it does state that it can be used in home (page 8). Just as long as it does not come in contact with food or cook/eating areas. So other than oil/water bases, what is the draw-backs to using it in home? Would it be ok to treat area baseboards/trim (leaving windows open) and leave for the day or over-night until it dries? I understand that all touchable as far as kitchen area would have to be thoroughly cleaned. Also how long does the odor linger for the XTS? Please help!
    A
    Bifen XTS is oil based and labeled for outdoor use only. We do carry Bifen IT which contains the same active ingredient as the Bifen XTS but is a water based formula and labeled for indoor use.

    Q
    Can I spray my whole lawn with Bifen XTS?
    I have many red fire ants and hills that have come up, plus an influx of picnic ants, spiders etc., in the house. I originally planned to just treat the external house perimeter, but now i want to go all out. I also want to repel mosquitoes. Is xts a good solution for thus and what sort of mix of concentrate would be good to go in a 2 gallon pump sprayer? And how much yard should a 32oz bottle cover?...thank you!
    A
    Bifen XTS is not recommended for pest control indoors. To treat the pest you described indoors and out, you can use Bifen IT. You can apply Bifen around the perimeter of the yars, trees and shrubs, and indoors cracks and crevices. In the yard, you can apply Talstar Xtra Granular.

    Q
    How soon after application with Bifen XTS for mole crickets on a pasture can livestock be returned for grazing?
    I will be spraying at the rate of 8 oz per acre
    A
    Bifen XTS is NOT labeled for and should not be used in grazing pastures at all. If you do have a grazing plot that was treated with the product then the grass should be allowed to grow high and then be cut several times before the horses can be turned out to graze again.

    Q
    Mix ratio for carpenter ants on Bifen XTS.
    Looking to mix ratio per gallon. Using a 1 or 2 gallon sprayer mixing with water for carpenter ants etc.
    A

    Bifen XTS is mixed at 1/6 fl oz to 1/3 fl oz per gallon of water per the label.

    Bifen XTS is labeled for carpenter ants. Bifen XTS will eliminate carpenter ants that come into contact with treated surfaces. Termidor SC is the more popular choice for carpenter ant control because it is non-repellent, has a delayed reaction kill and has a transfer effect. This means that the ants cannot detect that an area has been sprayed and cannot avoid the treated area, as they walk over the area they pick small particles of Termidor SC up on their body and inadvertently carry back to the colony spreading it to other ants.

    Q
    What ratio do I mix Bifen XTS with water to kill fleas ?
    A
    Bifen XTS is a little but different than most other insecticides. When using this product you will want to make sure you are getting correct usage rate of .15 fl oz per 1,000 sq ft in whatever amount of water you need to cover 1,000 sq ft. In this case water just acts as a carrier. If you need 1 gallon of water to cover 1,000 sq ft you will use .15 fl oz of Bifen XTS per gallon of water over 1,000 sq ft.

    Q
    I have a spider mite(I think) and springtail problem that is getting out of control. Would this work for both?
    The mites are red and kind of hard. Not like clover mites that just squish and leave a red mark. I have tried a handful of pesticides from my local store and it looks like the mites are getting worse(hundreds)....I can see when they are laying eggs on my siding..... please help. Also, springtails are everywhere....this is getting out of control.
    A
    First, we recommend contacting Your Local Cooperative Extension Office to positively identify what type of mite. after positive identification we can properly recommend a successful game plan to treat this pest. Also, please check out our article "How to Get Rid of Bird Mites in the Home".  We also have an article for silverfish control titled "Silverfish Pest Control".
